There are different ways to skin the cat, but that book will give you a great start.

I'd love to get my first SFH rental rolling and get some skin in the game -- I just don't want it to be my rear!!

Title companies are now reluctant to do these.The second type is a wet closing, that is where separate funding is used to close each escrow, that could be transactional or flash funding to close the first escrow, and the buyers funds to close the second escrow and pay off the flash funder.There are several ways to skin a cat, and it is possible to do a single escrow and avoid the back to back closing and extra costs.

HML's will rarely lend without any borrwer's "skin in the game" so be mindful of that.

He also has this irritating pitch, on all of his MLS listings.

LOL, no comments.....again,let me guess, you need a lsit of unknowns because you can't develop a relationship for repeat business....does that mean that your deals are all about skinning the buyer?

The seller will want that upfront so he gets paid (and then he can take it back again maybe); the seller might want that to show your level of commitment ("skin in the game").

A formerly quite one... very irritating.

See there is more than one way to skin a cat.

You need thick skin, and deep pockets.I love the quotes and stories from others, but at the end of the day, you gotta ask yourself.. do you have the guts to do this?
